Looting, rioting, and "peaceful protests" get in the way of work. Cities have chased away businesses with high taxes and regulations and now a toleration of looting and arson. Now they want us to pay the price. No!

They win either way.
The people not for this will move away, thus making their positions more secure.
If you stay, you pay.
There’s really only one way left to deal with them.

We suppose these mayors are rich and are proposing to pay their constituents to be lazy non=productive leeches? (Remember, mayors, that “The Devil finds work for idle hands.” Ask your parents what that means if you can’t understand it. )

Democrats have ruled cities for decades. Their cities are corrupt squalor zones. This is just another scheme of leveraging federal money to bail out their bankrupt cities. Democrats know only failure and stealing other people’s industry by fomenting class warfare.

“. . . Mayor Michael Tubbs, who is leading one of the first major U.S. basic income experiments in his hometown of Stockton, California. Since February 2019, Tubbs has been working with researchers to disburse $500 a month to 125 residents.”
And the researchers found this in their experiments: people will accept free money each month and report they need more.
To: karpov
Of course the money would come from those that work and have to pay an increase in income taxes to support them.

There is already a universal basic income. If you don’t work, your basic income is zero. It can only get better from there.

UBI is a “quit on life” entitlement. I would be ready to meet its proponents halfway, however, provided that in exchange for a guaranteed UBI payment, recipients would agree to be sterilized and live in a quarantined reservation. Or be shipped off to whatever ancestral home is relevant to their fantasy lives.

Once you pay the Danegeld, you never get rid of the Dane.
And once you say “shower them with money to stop the violence”, you guarantee more violence when they want more money.
